REAL Housewives of New Jersey star Margaret Joseph’s “ALSO heard the rumor” that Jackie Goldschneider’s husband Evan cheated on her.
Teresa Giudice, 48, said she was “validated” when she learned the new information during Wednesday’s episode of the Bravo show.
Teresa previously ignited a feud with Jackie, 44, when she began a rumor that Evan had been unfaithful during his birthday party.
While in a car with Teresa, Dolores Catania and Frank Catania, Jennifer Aydin shared her husband told her: “Bill told me, boys night, when the rumor came up, Joe Benigno I guess said he heard the rumor too.”
Margaret, 53, and Joe tied the knot in 2013.
The 43-year-old them claimed Margaret had heard the rumor about Evan, sharing: “Which would mean that Marg knows and isn’t coming clean.
“I think Marg just feels really bad for Jackie and wants to stick by her.”
Teresa responded: “See, now my story is now kind of validated, thank you!”
During the season premiere of RHONJ, Teresa stirred up trouble when she spent Evan’s birthday party spreading the rumor.
Following the party, Jackie asked Teresa to sit down for a discussion about the rumor.
After the mother-of-four refused to state that she spread the rumor without evidence, Jackie made a false claim that Gia, 20, does cocaine.
She said in a fit of rage: “I heard that Gia snorts coke at the bathroom at parties! I heard it! I don’t know who I heard it from. I heard it from somebody.”
Teresa angrily responded by calling Jackie a “f**king b**h” and stormed out of the room as she continued to cuss her out.
The drama continued into the next episode, which captured the other Bravo stars trying to convince Teresa to call a truce with Jackie.
While on a getaway trip, the other women admitted they can see why Jackie was be offended by Teresa’s claims because the rumor affected her marriage.
Melissa Gorga told Teresa: “You were 100% wrong for bringing it up at the party instead of telling it to Jackie directly.”
Teresa became furious and she got up from the table and said: “I’m leaving, you’re all a**holes. Go f**k yourselves I’m serious.”
After Teresa slammed the door, the women followed her in the room and end up hashing it out.
